Why I choose to make these Prophecies
The reason why I made the Prophecies was because I hated Duncan. Duncan was a good man and I hate good people who like to protect the country and keep bad people away from them, so I had to act, I looked in my crystal ball and asked it, “Who should I make kill King Duncan?” Then the crystal ball gave me some names there were a lot of brave men but there were none like Macbeth because he was the one person who could make this kingdom into a bad and nasty place like it used to be before Duncan became King. So I figured out where Macbeth was going to be and went there and told him about the prophesies. Right after that I put a spell on the old Thane of Cawdor that he would lie about being allies with another country that wanted to take over our country and then he was hanged and one thing was out of the way, so then I went into a body and said that Macbeth shall be Thane of Cawdor and everyone agreed. So this made Macbeth believe in the Prophesies and made him kill King Duncan and made the land like it used to be. Like screams coming from everywhere and dead body’s spirits floating around. This was my plan and I was planning to keep it this way until Macbeth killed his best friend Banquo.
Witch Three- The Inital Prophecy
I go to the proud Macbeth after the commotion of their petty battles. The sight of his wet and bloody body filled my heart with profound disgust. These strange mortals seem to reward this gore covered specimen with honours he doesn't deserve. Ah, fair is foul indeed! This ignorant butcher will fall into our plans nicely. The murder’s companion however, will be a problem. I sensed an aura of cautiousness and wisdom around him. Oh, how I wish I could simply strike them down with lightning or fire! These powers snatched away from me by the sins of man; I must instead, rely upon my faithful tongue and plant the seeds of his eventual downfall. And may peace be upon those select few who remain free of the corruption of this evil world. My companions will be using more evil methods than I. However I will only have to use the words and allow them to fester in his mind and open the door of darkness in his mind, the rest will be simple and predicable. All hail Macbeth who shall be king hereafter! I could feel his ambition and greed looking for an excuse to murder the righteous king Duncan! Well, I have this divine key and I shall use it to unlock the evil from his muddled mind. But, Banquo the meddlesome solider is too cautious for my liking. Thou shalt get kings though thou be none! Glorious conflict! Now Macbeth shall lose his best ally and as in war those without allies are doomed to fail! Finally, mankind will get what they deserve! May the earth rejoice and the airs howl with glee with the fall of Macbeth! All hail Macbeth the Killer of all!

This picture shows my view of Macbeth and the violence he is capable of. Macbeth should follow this advice rather that kill whatever gets in his way.

Double, double toil and trouble
When I was watching Macbeth through my crystal ball, I was disappointed by his mixed emotions. I wanted to increase his confidence and strength so he would have the will and power to kill Duncan. So, I made this ghostly dagger appear before Macbeth to motivate him. He was shocked to see this image. I could not appear in his sight and persuade him to proceed with the killing. But, I wanted to send the message with the vision of the dagger pointing towards Duncan's chamber to force him to act. Now that Macbeth is the king of Scotland, I wanted to make him stronger and develop his character. I noticed that after Duncan's death, Macbeth had a weak heart and I sensed his fear. At the royal dinner I wanted to test his emotions, I wanted to take away that fearful heart. I made the ghost of Banquo appear to frighten Macbeth. Banquo is dead, and Macbeth would be surprised to see Banquo one more time. Lady Macbeth irritates me because she often interferes with my plans. Every attempt I make to help Macbeth become a strong king and make him comfortable with his actions she often convinces him to follow another plan. I am an immortal witch with magical powers who should be right in every situation. Instead, a mortal is finding devious ways to outwit me! However, I credit her for changing Macbeth from being soft, and patient to ambitious, and greedy. She not only helped Macbeth become king, but she made him comfortable with killing people who stood in his way or disrespected him so he could assume the throne. But at the same time, I feel that Macbeth would be better off without Lady Macbeth because he has me to guide him. During the process of making Macbeth stronger, I realized that Macbeth was not worthy of being a king of Scotland. Even though he may overcome some challenges he still has a soft heart and yet he is still not used to eliminating his enemies. I feel that I have wasted the past few days helping Macbeth to become a strong king. When Macduff and Macbeth were about to fight, I immediately took away Macbeth's skills in combat and courage. I allowed Macduff to kill Macbeth. I feel that Macbeth should be vanished from this world for wasting my time.

Macbeth's visit . His visit to seek the answers to his quesitons.
I had made the right choice when I chose Macbeth. Macbeth has been a great toy to play with. In fact he came to us this time. I think he really came to us because he had too many insecurities. The insecurities he had, were that people have become suspicious of him and Macduff did not attend his banquet, which seemed like bad signs for him. Macbeth was a foolish for coming back to me, because I made him feel cocky. I made apparitions appear.The first apparition told him one truth, it was to beware Macduff. Other than that, the apparitions only told him signs to beware of. Macbeth was foolish for relying on prophecies which seemed impossible and could not happen. The second said that he cannot be harmed by someone born from a woman. The third apparition said that he shall not be defeated until the Birnam Woods moved to his castle. It was too bad that Macduff was not born from a woman, he told Macbeth that he was untimely ripped from his mother, and the English soldiers cut the trees and brought it to Macbeth's castle. Macbeth should have been smarter or at least not as foolish to listen to me. I guess if he did not try to make the prophecy happen, I would have been bored for the last little while. A good thing was that when I was done with my toy, someone else took care of it, when it became trash.
